Summary:                    xdm hangs
Description: 
I've managed to get XOrg7 installed, following the instructions in the
wiki, and everything seemed to install ok. :)
However when using xdm on startup the login window freezes and continually
says "login incorrect". It's as if I were holding down the enter key
without entering a username/password.

pam problem? check /var/log/auth?

Looks like it might be:

Apr  4 14:27:29 cnf3282txn PAM-warn[15582]: function=[pam_sm_authenticate]
service=[xdm] terminal=[:0] user=[<unknown>] ruser=[<unknown>]
rhost=[<unknown>]

Lots of the above - where do I go from here?

Solved: added xdm file to /etc/pam.d/

#
# /etc/pam.d/xdm - xdm(1) pam configuration
#

auth    required pam_unix.so
account required pam_unix.so

# EOF

:)

Fixed by adding a pam.d file for the xdm module.
